Introduction

Following a brain injury, an individual’s abilities and capabilities may have changed. What once came naturally to them, may now be a struggle. As a result, celebrating the success once gained through those abilities and capabilities may be out of reach. As a consequence, individuals living with brain injuries may be led to believe that their efforts are not worth celebrating. But that is simply not the case. Although abilities and capabilities may change, individuals living with brain injuries and adversity can begin to celebrate great successes.

“I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still, I can do something; and because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do something that I can do.” Helen Keller

For many years I lived in denial to how my traumatic brain injury impacted my life. Nevertheless, I ran into one wall after another wall. Facing these walls minimized the gains that I made in my efforts to succeed in my life. In response, I had a difficult time celebrating what I had accomplished in my attempt to succeed. When I reached a point in time that I could no longer deny my reality, I realized that I needed to change how I measured success. I began to realize that the process and the journey are more important than the destination.

What I discovered along the way, was that I needed to stop putting a judgment on my efforts. I discovered that I needed to stop berating myself for what I could not do and begin to discover ways that would work for me. Ways, in which I could begin to celebrate the success that I was making through my efforts. Through my process and my journey I discovered several lessons and share what I learned through articles on Second Chance to Live. To make the information available to individuals who learn through watching and listening I create video presentations.

Video Presentations

In this video presentations eBook, I have compiled a list of video presentations. A list of video presentations in which I share what has and continues to help me to celebrate success. The success that I am making, sometimes slowly and other times quickly. As you watch the video presentation offered through the table of contents and questions come to mind, please send those questions to me. All questions are good questions and are welcomed, my friend. You may send your questions to my email address: secondchancetolive1@yahoo.com.

“Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful.” Albert Schweitzer
